WMCHealth’s Heart & Vascular Institute Opens New Kingston Office, Welcoming Cardiologists Ellis Lader, MD, and Aneta Dimova, MD

KINGSTON, N.Y. (June 18, 2018) — The Heart & Vascular Institute of the Westchester Medical Center Health Network (WMCHealth) has a new office location at network affiliate HealthAlliance Hospital: Mary's Avenue Campus, welcoming longtime Kingston cardiologists Ellis W. Lader, MD, and Aneta D. Dimova, MD, to the Institute's team.

The Heart & Vascular Institute now occupies the offices of the former Mid-Valley Cardiology practice, at 111 Mary's Ave. in Kingston, on the Mary's Avenue Campus, providing a seamless transition for patients previously cared for by Drs. Lader and Dimova at the same location. Drs. Lader and Dimova practiced at Mid-Valley Cardiology for more than 20 years.

Drs. Lader and Dimova see adult patients in Kingston for a wide range of conditions, including high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart valve disease, coronary artery disease, acute coronary syndrome, angina, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, heart failure, cardiac arrhythmia, valvular heart disease and congenital heart disease.

Patients also benefit from access to a broad range of advanced cardiovascular services, and many other disciplines, at WMCHealth's flagship Westchester Medical Center and at Good Samaritan Hospital in Suffern, another member of WMCHealth.

"We are pleased to welcome the expertise of Drs. Lader and Dimova to WMCHealth's Heart & Vascular Institute," said Julio A. Panza, MD, Chief of Cardiology at WMCHealth. "Kingston-area patients now have access to the broadest possible range of solutions from a team of world-class physicians, supported by some of the most highly skilled and experienced nurses and technicians in the region. WMCHealth's Heart & Vascular Institute is committed to providing the highest-quality comprehensive cardiovascular care and expertise to residents of the Hudson Valley, close to home, in the communities where they live."
